SUGAR AND REVENUE,
senator Dawes Tells How to Reduce Rev
enue and Aid Home Industries.

iCoPyTtg, 1851 by tie California Associated Press
SARATOGA, July 2sth. - Special J. Senator
Dawes, speaking on paper and tariff before the
American Paper Makers Association yesterday,
alluded TO sugar, and said that the existing duty
on sugar presents an opportunity for the largest
reduction OF revenue with the least check upon
home production We are the largest consum-
ers of sugar in the world. The cost of the sugar
which our people daily consume is greater than
tnat OF the bread they eat, and eleven-twelfths
of it is imported from foreign countries while
only one-twel!th is raised on our own soil We
have placed heavy protective duty, amount
ing now annually to nearly $50 100000 upon
eleven-tweltths OF it, and in aid o. home pro
dction, hardly reaching One-tenth of the whole
raised in Louisiana. For some reason she has
been able to increase her production but very
little for the last fifty years, producing 100000
hogsheads in 1874, and only go, go in 1885. Her
largest crop was in 1861. Since then che has
every year fallen very far short of the crop of
that year
Beet sugar has as yet made very little progress
in this country and that from sorghum still
less. Sugar, therefore. i'll the present relation
OF that product TO consumption in this country
comes substantially within the pale of a raw
material the consumption of which in this
country cannot be met by home production
and the outlay for any home result yet reached
is altogether disproportionate to the product
The only hesitation lies in the province of better
results in the future. both from cane and beet
and sorghum Louisiana can produce more
cane, and more sugar from what She does raise,
at mucn less cokt than heretofore and 1t is
hoped she will, with the pro; er stimulation of
an active, paying market, increase her pro-
duetion.
The rich prairies of the West can be made to
compete with Germany and France in the pro
duction OF the Sugar-beet, and sugar from abun-
dant crops of sorghum in the future cannot be
doubted. We cannot, there ore, afford to blight
the promise by making sugar free, and leaving
Its production here TO be crushed out by the pro
ducts of slave labor in the West Indies and other
islands, and the half-starved and halfnaked
laborerS who are worked with pittancc for nav
in other lands nominally free.
Let us begin our revision by reduction of 50
per cent. of the existing duty on all sugar not
the product of slave labor, with an equivalent
bounty, pound for pound, on all sugar raised on
our own soil, and let foreign sugar pay the
in the aecumulating revenue, without an abate-
ment of encouragement to home production
and with the essential diminution in the cost of
thirty million dollars to the COZ sumers
